We all related in a way to our parents whether we like it or not. However we all take different paths but we can’t help that we act similar to our parents. In the story’s The Lost Hero, and The Lightning Thief characters can connect through and have conflicts with other Greek or Roman Demigods. In the Lightning Thief the characters have tight bonds between characters like Percy. They were on a quest to rescue Percy’s mom. In the Lost Hero, the characters from the start of the story face multiple events that lead to the discovery of their background.

Sometimes Romans use graecus as an insult for someone who’s an outsider – an enemy. I wouldn’t worry about it.” (SON,43). These reveal the hate for one another and the differences between camps in each books.

His cabin mates stirred. Several tried to pull him back to his seat, but Leo resisted. “No, it’s me. I know it is. I’ve got an idea for the transportation problem. Let me try. I can fix this!” Jason studied him for a moment. Piper was sure he was going to tell Leo no. Then he smiled. “We started this together, Leo. Seems only right you come along. You find us a ride, you’re in.” “Yes!” Leo pumped his fist.” (TLH,131). This is similar to how Percy went on his quest with Annabeth and Grover the main three characters in the Lightning Thief.
